Zara Larsson loves color, glitter, and fun. Her aesthetic is pure pop girl energy with a splash of Lisa Frank: tons of aqua blues, purples, and of course, bright Barbie pink! But for her Allure cover shoot, she swapped the pink makeup and neon wardrobe for metallic silver and minimalist black and white and wore pink in her hair instead.
According to hairstylist Iggy Rosales, who worked with Larsson and makeup artist Sophia Sinot on the cover, the moodboard was based on “a modern ’50s pinup with a bit of a 2000s influence: sexy, playful and a little fantasy.” Rosales praised photographer Hugo Comte’s “specific eye for color and how everything comes together in an image” and said that he, Sinot, and stylist Ronald Burton III played with a few different color combos throughout the shoot. That being said, when it came to Larsson’s hair, they stuck to platinum and pink—a fun departure from Larsson’s current bright, golden blonde.
“Zara just makes sense as a pink-haired girl,” Rosales tells Allure. “It was part of the moodboard from the beginning.” But there were a very specific shades of pink in mind for the cover, so Rosales came very prepared with a plethora of wig options. “We liked the slightly more muted, dusty pinks, but I still brought about 10 or 12 wigs in different shades so we could try them. Once we saw them on Zara, we gravitated towards the sleeker, more graphic shapes. The soft pink and platinum worked really well against those sharper shapes.”
